Manchester United have announced that they have ended their sponsorship deal with Russian airline, Aeroflot.

The club confirmed the news in a statement made on their official website on Friday, as the world unites in universal condemnation of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

The statement read: “In light of events in Ukraine, we have withdrawn Aeroflot’s sponsorship rights.

“We share the concerns of our fans around the world and extend our sympathies to those affected.”

Aeroflot have had a relationship with United since 2013, when the airline became one of the club’s global partners.

The deal was renewed in 2017, and it is estimated that the deal is worth in the region of £30 million.

United have regularly used Aeroflot planes, but it is understood that a different carrier was used to take the Red Devils to and from their Champions League Round of 16 first leg tie away at Atletico Madrid.

Among the other football clubs to curtail their association with Russian companies includes Schalke, with the German Bundesliga side ending their sponsorship agreement with Gazprom.

Ralf Rangnick’s side are back in Premier League action on Saturday when they host Watford at Old Trafford.

I pity those wey dey support Putin action. This isn't about fighting the west............ People like Putin are blood thirsty demon with little or no regard for human lives and will stop at nothing to ensure every country surrenders to him if Russia eventually becomes world power. The guy is a pure dictator and should be stopped regardless of the price. The earlier his supporters know this, the better cos i don't see why same hypocrites would condemn Abacha, Buhari and Gaddafi and still go ahead to support Putin.
